"The Sha La La Song" lyrics

"The Sha La La Song"

At last it's over
I knew I could not hold him
His love for freedom
Was far too strong

But though he's gone now
My life is just beginning
I'll soon forget him
I'll soon forget him
I must forget him, Lord

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la
There's a brand new day beginning
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la
There's a brand new love that waits for me

Will I remember
Will I still hear him whisper?
Will I still feel his
Lips on mine?

In dreams I see him
Perhaps he'll stay forever
And all I'm wishing
And all I'm hoping
And all my longing, too

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la
There's a brand new day beginning
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la
There's a brand new love that waits for me

He made me happy
And though I suffered, too
There's no mistaking
Our love was true

But such a sweet love
Just wasn't meant to be
And it's all over
Yes, it's all over
And now it's done I'll start anew

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la
There's a brand new day beginning
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la
There's a brand new love beginning

Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la
There's a brand new day beginning
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la
There's a brand new love beginning

Sha-la-la...
